The League of Women Voters is a nonpartisan, grassroots, political organization established in 1920 to educate citizens and advocate for good government. The strength of our movement is in our members, women and men who work to improve our systems of government and impact public policies through education and advocacy. The League at all levels national, regional, state and local conducts in-depth policy studies to clarify the impacts of legislation and to determine the position of its members. The League of Women Voters of Wisconsin (LWVWI) and the LWVWI Education Fund operate on the state level with leadership and grassroots support from LWVUS and our 21 local Leagues in Wisconsin. The League of Women Voters neither supports nor opposes candidates for office at any level of government. At the same time, the League is wholeheartedly political and works to influence policy through advocacy. Over time, the League's advocacy agenda changes to reflect the needs of society. The organization remains true to its basic purpose: to make democracy work for all citizens. The League of Women Voters makes a difference in the lives of citizens because of the energy and passion of thousands of members committed to our principles.
With a strict nonpartisanship policy, the League of Women Voters is a trusted source of unbiased information and a force for positive social change.
